And our 4 year price history chart:
For the first time in 3 years, we are seeing an increase in the number of homes sold in Indianapolis! This is very very very exciting. The average sales price is up a little bit with a 1% increase in February, but the really exciting news the 35% and 12% increase in number of homes sold in the first two months of this year for Indianapolis Indiana homes for sale.
The foreclosure market will continue to plague the market especially in Indianapolis versus the outlying suburbs. We are still seeing almost ½ of all home sales as a result of foreclosures with 43% of all sales in both January and February from some sort of distressed homes.
There is a sense of optimism in the real estate community and the feeling on the ground is that we have turned the corner. Everyone seems to be busier than in recent memory and there is reason to believe 2012 will be a great year for real estate in Indianapolis.
